One of the most valued handcrafts made by the indigenous communities in the Yucatan Peninsula is the hammock—they represent the income more than 700 families in the area. Most of the hammocks for sale in Yucatan are handmade in family workshops. En route to Izamal and Chichen Itza, you will stop at Tixkokob, a rural community located 30 minutes east of Merida. This is a town famous for its high-quality hammock waving; you are here to meet a local artisan at his family’s workshop. You will discover the secrets and “techniques” to best lie in a hammock and mostly you will experience a close encounter with the artisan culture while you observe, learn and optionally participate in a demonstration of their craft. The journey continues towards Izamal, probably one of the eldest cities in Yucatan, founded in the 4th century A.D. by Itzamna, leader, and patriarch of the Mayan people. Known as the “City of three cultures”, Izamal bring together elements of the pre-hispanic, colonial and contemporary eras. After lunch and time to wonder beautiful streets, you will be transferred to your hotel located in Chichen Itza area, to spend the rest of the day at leisure.
